Andre rode his bike at a constant speed. He rode 2 1/3 miles in 11 2/3 minutes.
(a) Write an equation that represents the distance d he rides (in miles) after time t (in minutes) passes.
(b) How long will it take Andre to ride 4 2/5 miles?
Given that Andre rode his bike at a constant speed. Number of miles driven = 1 mile Time taken to drive 1 mile = 5 minutes. Then speed can be calculated using formula: Speed = Distance / Time
Now we have to find the amount of time t (in minutes) taken by him to right distance d so we can again use same formula.
Speed = Distance / Time or Time = Distance / Speed Plug the given values
